i can bet a million dollars that those people that say it was the worst weren't fans since the beginning!!!

YES! And let's face it, those are not really fans. It's like people that don't like one of the main characters. :S How can you say you are a true friends fan when you don't like one of the main characters???

yes the pilot is amazing. it just full of meaningful things, like the R/R moments. it may have its flaws, as in the lighting (it's so dark hehe) but to me it's perfect! i can bet a million dollars that those people that say it was the worst weren't fans since the beginning!!!

Haha, it's darker indeed. But I like the look fo the episode in general :)

exactly!! those just "like" the show but are not true fans!! WE are!!!!!!

So much to say about this episode...overall I love it! There are actually lots of funny lines and it sets up the show brilliantly. I love how Rachel walks in when Ross says he wishes he was married again. And I love how they started Ross' depressing 'hi' in the pilot and used it throughout the show haha. The funniest parts for me were when Joey put the bracket in the plant, when Chandler says 'stay out of my freezer' and when he sings 'once I was a wooden boy!' hahaha

I was reading the episode guide that comes with anniversary boxset and there were some interesting things in it from the creators about their original plan for the show. It got me thinking about how it always was gonna be about these people in the coffee house... I think it's awesome they used such a unique coffee house, IDK about you guys but it is so different to coffee places over here it is so much more cosy and home like! Some other interesting things it said was in the original plan for the characters, Rachel got high with Mindy when she was freaking out and that's when she realised Barry looked like Mr Potato Head lol and that Phoebe didn't actually have a home, she'd stay at guy's houses or on friends' couches... I don't remember the show ever mentioning where Phoebe lived at the beginning, I wonder if they were still using that story when the show started?
